1. Information We Collect
Our extension does not collect or store any personal information from users. YouTube Focus works entirely within your browser to enhance your YouTube experience by hiding distractions like comments and recommendations. All operations take place locally on your device, meaning that no data is sent to our servers or any third party.
2. Permissions We Use

ActiveTab: This permission allows us to interact with the currently active YouTube tab to apply focus-enhancing features when you click on the extension. No data is logged or transmitted.
Scripting: We use this to inject scripts that modify the YouTube interface, such as removing comments or hiding recommended videos, ensuring you can focus on the content that matters.
3. How We Use Your Information
We do not collect any personally identifiable information. The permissions we request are solely for providing our core functionality of transforming YouTube into a distraction-free space. All data used is limited to your browser and remains private.
